Welcome back Year 6! This half term (Spring 1) in English, the children shall be writing about Charles Darwin, producing a biography about his life. Each maths group will continue to work through the Year 6 curriculum, continuing to secure their knowledge in the four operations. Applying their skills across both arithmetic and reasoning. In Science they will be learning about Electricty and how electrical circuits work. Last term all the children worked really hard with their assessments and made great progress. The year 6 team are looking forward to yet again another exciting half term with the children as they continue to work hard and impress us everyday. Keep checking back to see what your child has been getting up to in their lessons...

Autumn Term 2

Welcome back Year 6! What a busy Autumn Term 1 we all had. All of the children worked their socks off and made lots of progress - making all of their teachers very proud! This half term we are looking forward to having just as much fun.

In Reading we will continue to look at a range of text types exploring different types of questions linked to the text. In Maths each group will have a slightly different focus depending on the needs of the children. Across writing the children will be writing a balanced argument and a persuasive letter about whether or not graffiti is art or vandalism.

As well as all of their hard work that the children are going to be taking part in we are also really looking forward to going to the Pantomime - oh no we're not, oh yes we are ...

Also as year 6 enjoying taking part in the World War Workshop so much he will be returning to school to help celebrate the 100 year anniversary.

Our amazing WWII experience day - lots of fun had by all!

The Piano - Amazing Short

Our next genre of writing will be a short narrative based on the short animation of The Piano by Aidan Gibbons. So far the children are really engaged with the short film and have been looking at figurative language and inference.
